OpenAI is eying up potential acquisition of agentic AI coding tool "Windsurf" for $3 billion
Summary
To that end, both Windsurf and OpenAI remain tight-lipped about the potential acquisition, but Bloomberg and CNBC have it on good authority that the deal is in the discussion phase, per their sources. Over the past few months, weve seen companies such as Microsoft unveil programs like Copilot Academy designed to help users enhance their prompt engineering skills. This is in the tails of a leaked report that suggests the top complaint at Microsofts AI division from customers inquiring why Copilot isnt as good as ChatGPT. The tech giant dismissed the claims, indicating that ChatGPT isnt better than Copilot, suggesting that users simply werent leveraging its capabilities as intended. In a separate report, Sam Altman indicated that hes less interested in fully replacing coders, but more focused on making them 10x more productive using AI.
